The Philippines and China agreed on Tuesday to “de-escalate tensions” over the South China Sea, Manila said, following a violent clash in the disputed waters last month.
Beijing insisted its coast guard behaved in a “professional and restrained” way and blamed Manila for the clash. “Noting recent incidents in the South China Sea, both sides recognised that there is a need to restore trust, rebuild confidence, and create conditions conducive to productive dialogue and interaction,“ it said, adding that “significant differences remain”.
“The reason why we are calling this out is because we don’t want any unintended consequence,“ Trinidad told reporters.- ‘Actions speak louder than words’ -
